Horizon Medical Center has served the medical needs of Dickson, Humphreys, Hickman and Perry counties since 1958. Located 45 miles west of Nashville, this 157-bed regional referral facility is recognized for primary care, geriatric psychiatric care services, and acute inpatient rehabilitation.
In addition, the facility provides 24-hour emergency services, surgery services, women's services, cardiology, rehabilitation, intensive care and pediatric services. It sponsors an extensive freestanding Occupational Medicine Clinic, as well as satellite rural clinics. Horizon Medical Center is fully accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations and is a current recipient of the Tennessee Quality Award.
Middle Tennessee is well known for beautiful scenery, communities rich in history, a mild four-season climate and outstanding entertainment. Dickson is home to the new Renaissance Center, an educational learning center open to the public.
Nashville, the capitol of Tennessee, is a thriving metropolitan city with a population of approximately 600,000 offering a superior lifestyle and one of the best medical communities in the country and is repeatedly recognized as one of the country’s top cities for business and future growth. In 2006, Forbe's magazine rated Nashville #7 as their Best Places for Business and Careers and Kiplinger's magazine rated Nashville as their #1 Smart Places to Live saying "Affordable homes, a mild climate and a phenomenal entertainment scene that goes beyond country". Previously Modern Physician Magazine listed Nashville as 7th on "The List" of the top 75 places to run a medical practice in the country. Population, malpractice premiums, Medicare reimbursement, labor costs, state income tax (TN has none) and education attainment were criteria used in the ranking. In 2003 and 2004, Nashville was voted #1 Friendliest City in the U.S. by USA Today.
Recent additions to downtown are the new NFL stadium for the Tennessee Titans, the 1999 AFC Champions, and the Gaylord Entertainment Center, home of the Nashville Predators NHL hockey team. Nashville is also home to sixteen institutions of higher education.
